A stray sheep in the Chaston Nursery Nativity Play

Here is our daughter making an unscripted appearance as a stray sheep in the Chaston Nursery Nativity Play last night. I'm also uploading a longer video on youtube - you can see Sofia sitting off to the right in her sheep costume, next to some more major players (the silver star, the gold star, Mary and the donkey). 

You would never know to look at her that the night before she was down at the hospital again getting more antibiotics for another ear infection. I did actually consider skipping the play, but she was so excited watching me make cupcakes for it that it seemed mean not to let her go. So I strapped her into the pushchair and forcibly administered the antibiotics and some nurofen and off we went. 

As you can see, she had a great time. Several people said to us afterwards 'Your daughter is so smiley!' and 'what a happy little girl you have!' Next year will be interesting - the kids in the big kids room (where you go when you turn two) had actual speaking and singing parts. Some of the boys in particular were very good actors and singers - we were very impressed (when we weren't howling with laughter...)
